Life...and other afflictions

The rantings and uninteresting events of my life

I am feeling so lazy these days. Don't feel like updating my blog at all, though I have quite a lot to say. I guess I need sleep or time to relax...been going out nearly every waking moment...when I'm at home, I have lots to do as well.

On Thursday, after I smsed Lee, she told me to go over to her office. Since I had her stuff, I just had to take a cab...but the silly taxi driver took me for a ride. I paid $16.90 for the ride from my place to Bencoolen Street! Man...if I couldn't claim the money, I would've SCREAMED at the taxi driver.

Met Russell and Nelson there. Didn't know Nelson was gonna be there...if not, I probably would've brought Nelson's stuff for him too.

Filming took the whole morning...but it was ok. Doris was taller than I thought. Lee asked why I haven't watched myself on TV. I find it embarrassing. Met the other producer, Andy. He seems really nice. So since Doris and I were talking to each other, it was way easier than usual, when we just have to talk to the camera alone.

Then went home...then headed off to dinner with Christine, Rach and Paul. Rach was ahem...a little delayed...but she made it there before we'd eaten up all the food. Wanted to go to Holland V for dessert...but ended up just going home, cos we couldn't get a cab there. At least I got to see Chris one more time before she left for Melbourne...and I haven't seen Paul since 2003? Whoa. That's a long time! And of course, it was great to see Rachy-Wachy again!

Spent a long time writing emails...actually spend quite a long time writing emails every night, cos the emails keep deleting themselves when I try to type a certain symbol. Damn it. I decided to write it in Word Pad first (no WORD on computer yet), which was a good idea.

On Friday, I hung out at home till lunch time...playing Ligretto with my mummy (cos if not, she'd watch TV the WHOLE DAY!)..then Han came over and we had lunch and I showed her my photos. Then I went out to meet Tiff! It was a mess, cos they were having Chingay rehearsals! Ugh...the buses were all affected...I couldn't get home without making a few detours. Sigh. But dinner with Tiff was great! The food at Coffee Club was nice, garlic prawn pasta is yummy. Pity I hate prawns and all seafood...and so was the mudpie. I bought some Singapore postcards for my friends in Germany and wrote them at night.

This morning, I went for breakfast with Guojun. Met Grace from NJ in Coffee Bean. Very sleepy. Spent lots of money at Watson's...sigh. Buying toiletries. What a waste of money. Was supposed to meet Joey at 4pm...he came out LATE. California Fitness is full of posers and wannabes. Ugh. Not everyone is, of course..but I see quite a few.

Glad to be home...just wanna sleep!

I am BACK in Singapore! I am sorry to all those whom I didn't sms or call. In fact, I have only smsed or called those who are leaving Singapore soon or those who smsed me first...like Ying Han, Christine, and Ruth..and Guojun, Tiff. Rach is an exception lah. But other than that, I've still been busy. BUT! I will contact you all sooner or later. Just very busy this week. I do wanna go out with you! I promise!

I've been going out every day since then...on Wednesday, Christine and I made Nunkey Muffins! So fun! They slowly began to look more and more like Nunkey muffins as we made more. There was amazingly lots of oil though...and too little sugar I think. Must be the temperature. We then met Ruth and Han...Han...who's usually late, lost or BOTH...was actually PUNCTUAL for once...and Chris and I were late. But in our defence, I say that the bus took FOREVER TO COME! We were even contemplating taking a cab! We ate at Crystal Jade in Holland V. That was good. The Xiao Long Bao there was better than at the Great World City branch. We went to NYDC to have dessert. The mudpie wasn' t too bad, but good thing I shared with Han...cos if not, then you'd get this damn jelat feeling. We talked for a LONG LONG time! Ruth asked us to guess what time it was...I looked at my watch and said "10 pm??!" And they all looked at me and said, "Actually, it's already 11" Yipes...and all while we were talking about subconscious actions and "penis-envy". I love all of them! They're my bestest friends in the world!

Ok, then I went home and had a chat with Mike, who was supposed to meet us the next morning online for a webchat. But it turns out that my webcam didn't work and Mike didn't have a microphone. Sigh. That was like 2 am already. So I went to bed and decided to SMS Lee when I woke up...

To be continued....
